Stemple Takedown Gun (STG) U45

Product Description

2022 Update:  For 2022 we are introducing the new Internally Threaded Pattern (ITP) assemblies of the Stemple 76/45 receivers to offer a more streamlined and versatile system with enhanced compatibility among setups.  Per this previously approved method of attaching the trunion, separate trunions and bolt guides are no longer necessary for converting between the standard and heavy bolt systems. While these can still be used on the receiver, one trunion now does it all.  For example, the previous U9 conversion to the U9 slow fire setup required separate trunions/bolt guides, bolts, stocks, and buffers.  In the ITP setup only the stock and buffer assemblies are switched to add mass to the moving parts for lower cycle rates.  The bolt and trunion are unchanged.  The fire controls, stocks, and mag housings are also unchanged.  

The conversion from the U9SF to the U45 in the combination guns is also further simplified by having a much heavier 45 bolt so a second bolt extension is no longer necessary to reduce the cycle rate.

The STG1928 parts are also fully compatible with this setup. 

2023 Update: We've recently switched to NiB Battleworn™ plating (dark gray color) on the lower assembly, magazine housing, and barrel jacket. This high performance finish adds greater durability and ease of cleaning compared to the black anodized finish. 

 ------------------------

The STG Universal 45 (U45) is our newest addition to the U Series setups for the Stemple 76/45 machine gun. It features a simple, smooth-running blow-back system.  With the addition of a hydraulic buffer, these are the most smooth, controllable, and versatile subguns on the transferable market.  It's so smooth due to the weight, layout, and action; you can actually watch your target being hit through a 4x scope while shooting long bursts.   This setup utilizes AR pattern stocks, AR pattern grips, and multiple picatinny mount options for maximum versatility.  Shooters can customize their preferred rates simply by adjusting the bolt parts. 

This gun is also ideal for use with a suppressor. The extra bolt weight drastically slows the initial bolt blow-back thereby significantly reducing port noise common in open-bolt  blow-back SMGs.

Transferable

In 2003, the original inventor, John Stemple collaborated with BRP Corp to make new and replacement parts for the Stemple 76/45 receivers he manufactured prior to the 1986 cutoff.  From this came a series of compatible drop-on parts for the unmodified/transferable Stemple 76/45 receivers known as Stemple Takedown Gun (STG) setups.  Since nothing is welded or hand fitted to these receivers, changing setups and replacing parts is fast and easy.  These are the most finely built and smooth running sub-machine guns on the transferable market.  We build them for performance and durability, stock plenty of high-quality spare parts, and provide excellent service.  There is only a limited number of these pre-1986 registered/transferable machine guns remaining, so get one while they last.

If you are going to buy a transferable machine gun for some serious shooting, you should consider the Stemple Takedown Guns for these reasons:

They are ‘new’

Well, the receivers are nearly 40 years old but the Stemple Takedown Gun (STG) setups are complete new parts packages installed on unused pre-1986 transferable Stemple 76/45 machine gun receivers.

Simple / Durable Design

Our guns are very difficult to break and very easy to fix. They are simple blow-back guns and very smooth-running in long full-auto bursts. 

Customizable

By using Picatinny rails (MIL-STD-1913) for sights and hand guards, shooters can add a variety of accessories and optics.   The configurations with the Adjustable Bolt System use common AR pattern stocks and grips with hundreds of options currently available. 

Easy-to-Replace Parts

There’s nothing on these guns that can’t be easily replaced.  We designed this system to protect the registered receiver from any wear during use.  The only parts that can wear can be easily replaced without the need to ship the gun back and forth.

Available Service

If you need service, we are here to support our products.

Shoot Cheap Ammo

We typically just shoot steel-cased ammo. Our milled steel trunions easily deal with potential wear issues from any type of ammo.

Can't Get Too Hot

These are ideal for machine-gun shoots. The low-pressure pistol ammo cannot create enough heat in the barrel to cause a malfunction or damage the gun.  There's no gas system to clog, and the open-bolt system negates any cook-off risk.
